This tutorial walks users through the creation and visualization of activation flat maps from fMRI datasets.
This tutorial demonstrates to users the conventional preprocessing steps when working with BOLD signal datasets from fMRI.
In this tutorial, users will learn how to create a trial-averaged BOLD response and store it in a matrix in MATLAB.
This tutorial teaches users how to create animations of BOLD responses over time, to allow researchers and clinicians to visualize time-course activity patterns.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to create event-related BOLD time courses from fMRI datasets.
In this tutorial, users learn how to compute and visualize a t-test on experimental condition differences.
This lesson introduces various methods in MATLAB useful for dealing with data generated by calcium imaging.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to generate and visualize animations of calcium fluctuations over time.
This tutorial instructs users how to use MATLAB to programmatically convert data from cells to a matrix.
In this tutorial, users will learn how to identify and remove background noise, or "blur", an important step in isolating cell bodies from image data.
This lesson teaches users how MATLAB can be used to apply image processing techniques to identify cell bodies based on contiguity.
This tutorial demonstrates how to extract the time course of calcium activity from each clusters of neuron somata, and store the data in a MATLAB matrix.
This lesson demonstrates how to use MATLAB to implement a multivariate dimension reduction method, PCA, on time series data.
This lesson is a general overview of overarching concepts in neuroinformatics research, with a particular focus on clinical approaches to defining, measuring, studying, diagnosing, and treating various brain disorders. Also described are the complex, multi-level nature of brain disorders and the data associated with them, from genes and individual cells up to cortical microcircuits and whole-brain network dynamics. Given the heterogeneity of brain disorders and their underlying mechanisms, this lesson lays out a case for multiscale neuroscience data integration.
This is a hands-on tutorial on PLINK, the open source whole genome association analysis toolset. The aims of this tutorial are to teach users how to perform basic quality control on genetic datasets, as well as to identify and understand GWAS summary statistics.
This is a tutorial on using the open-source software PRSice to calculate a set of polygenic risk scores (PRS) for a study sample. Users will also learn how to read PRS into R, visualize distributions, and perform basic association analyses.
This lesson describes the principles underlying functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), tractography, and parcellation. These tools and concepts are explained in a broader context of neural connectivity and mental health.
This tutorial introduces pipelines and methods to compute brain connectomes from fMRI data. With corresponding code and repositories, participants can follow along and learn how to programmatically preprocess, curate, and analyze functional and structural brain data to produce connectivity matrices.
In this tutorial on simulating whole-brain activity using Python, participants can follow along using corresponding code and repositories, learning the basics of neural oscillatory dynamics, evoked responses and EEG signals, ultimately leading to the design of a network model of whole-brain anatomical connectivity.
